| | Health - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Thus, health is maintained through the science and practice of medicine, but can also be improved by individual effort. | | | In any organism, health can be said to be a "state of balance," or analogous to homeostasis, and it also implies good prospects for continued survival. | | | Alternative medicine can sometimes be used to improve health. |
